Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Maia Press, the doughty independent run by Maggie Hamand and Jane Havell, is publishing two novels by Emma Tennant. One of the Tennant family of English eccentrics, Emma has been round the houses in her time with memoirs and fiction. Next month, Maia issues Tennant's The Harp Lesson, which takes its cue from an 18th-century ancestor who rose from humble origins to the French court. Maia is, like Arcadia, an indie which punches above its weight and also offers a haven for writers shut out of larger houses by the short-sighted policies of major retailers and publishers.
